Rolls-Royce Limited, DERBY. Dear Robotham, This is to apologise for the mistake I made over dates in my last letter to you. I was having a cold at the time, which seems to have had the effect of completely paralysing the brain. Anyway, I see from my brother's letter that we are hoping to see you on Thursday next, the 26th. instant. Yours sincerely, M.C. Wilks | ||
